    1858 rear sight blade update

    Went to the gun range today. Guy that owns the place is a guns smith..He had a complete ruger 1858 on hand. A little grinding to remove a spot that holds back a spring..A perfect fit...7.50 plus a 10 dollar range fee I was blasting powder..Going to cancel my order and wait till Dixie has them in...

    Remington 1858 parts

    I got it at Cabela's too. The price is right. It fits on the belt I already had. Just had to notch it out with a razor blade. May rough it up with sand paper a bit and put some brown shoe polish on it. Looking forward to shooting it agian. Just finished a loading stand. It's a must have :thumbsup:

    Remington 1858 parts

    Its quite possible I never tightened them up after I sighted it in. I dont think I have fired 100 balls thru it yet.

    Shot loads in Revolver

    I use 35 grains 3f, .454 round ball and a over powder wad. I use # 10 caps. Pop off 6 caps before you load it. Burns all the oil out of the cylinders. Plus the caps are a tight fit on the dirty nipples. If I forget that step the caps tend to fall off on the first 6 shots..

    Stripped screw

    Thanks for all the replys Guys. I finaly got around to fixing it a couple days ago. I drilled it out and glued in a 1/4" dowel rod. It was already a steal screw so I reused it. If the weather warms up I might get to the range. Its snowing in Texas!!! Whats up with that??? Had to do some plowing
